[Kasey]

I don't think we are changing much from last year. We don't buy the kids alot because there are 3 sets of grandparents and quite a few aunts and uncles whom they also get presents from. We usually stick with one big present for each and several small ones and a few things in their stockings.
The adults in our families have agreed not to shop for each other,s o that is the biggest change this year.

We also try to send something back each xmas to the babyhomes. So we are in the midst of collecting socks and mittens and hat. Alek really enjoys this.
He has been a big help as well this year with the annual clean out of toys. We take them to school to donate as the school has a charity for women and children in need.
SO at least now I feel less cluttered and there is room for santa's arrival this year!
